Hey guys!
So I'm a young dad thrust into the life that is raising little ones. A 4 year old, 2 year old and a 6 month old to be exact. I probably don't need to say more if you have kids haha.
I wanted to get some advice from some of you sages out there. I want to introduce my kids to fishing and the outdoors. I'n a little stumped in how to do that effectively. I love fly fishing but I think that's out until they are older. I've done a few brief outings shore-fishing Rampart Reservoir with my 4 year old but hauling a toddler on your back 2 miles in is tough to do frequently especially since I work 6 days a week.
Because of the season of life I'm considering a watercraft of some type, for accommodating the family. Be that kayak(s), square-stern canoe, or a boat in the 14ft range(i.e. a v-hull, or maybe a dual hull like a Livingston)
Given the opportunities in Colorado what would you guys recommend if you were in my shoes? I don't have a big budget though I can make repairs/modifications myself on a project to save on cost.
Maybe it's not to get a watercraft at all and just keep shore fishing that advice is okay too! Just wanted to get some feedback from some men that have lived it! Thank you for any replies! Blessings guys!
